Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: South Africa's participation in the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) has enriched our understanding of the South African education landscape. An analysis of our grade 9 results shows improvement, an indication that targeted interventions focusing on poorly performing schools and learners are having a noticeable effect. However, our high-performers might need more support, writes Dr Mariette Visser.
